Wave Properties

All waves are characterized by their wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and speed. These properties are fundamental to understanding light, sound, radio, and other wave phenomena.

The Wave Equation

v = λ × f

Where v is wave speed, λ (lambda) is wavelength, and f is frequency. Rearranging gives λ = v / f.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive corresponding points of a wave, such as two crests or two troughs. It is inversely proportional to frequency.
